Prometheus

We took naming our team seriously. Afterall, this is what we would be known by for the rest of the semester and the foreseeable future.

We brainstormed for hours together in futility.  After much thought, in fact a lot of thought about naming our team, we came up with the name Prometheus.It sounded like a name all of us agreed upon. We playtested the name on all the other humans in the room and they seemed to like it. We went further and consulted with a mythology graduate about prometheus and she liked it too.  As a group of three teams, we are getting along well and the whole room seems like a bull-pen where we can have fun and learn together.

We are working independantly on finding the problem. in a sense we have crowdsourced the problem of finding a problem within our team. the goal is:

1. to find an existing crowdsourcing problem that is known in computing. OR

2. to find a crowdsourceble problem in the real world and map it on to a computable problem.

we have planned to deal with designing a game around this problem later.

all of us will update the blog with our research and thoughts in the coming two days. we will brainstorm further on monday.
